Evidence for the existence of the same endogenous digitalis-like factor in several mammalian species
1. Endogenous digitalis-like activity was studied comparatively in four mammalian species: guinea pig, dog, cow and rat. 2. Water extracts were prepared from guinea pig, dog, cow and rat hearts and assayed by ouabain radioreceptorassay, digoxin radioimmunoassay and digitoxin radioimmunoassay. Extracts were further analysed by fractionation by gel permeation chromatography with Sephadex G-25. 3. A similar behaviour was observed with the four species in the three assays. Extracts displaced tritiated ouabain binding to its receptor and labeled digoxin analogue binding to antidigoxin antibodies in a competitive manner. Displacement of labeled digitoxin analogue to antidigitoxin antibodies did not follow Michaelis-Menten kinetics. IC50 ratios between assays were similar for the four species studied. 4. Extracts from the four species exhibited a similar pattern when fractionated with Sephadex G-25. Endogenous digoxin-like immunoreactivity eluted after the salts, suggesting that the active material is of a molecular weight of less than 1000. 5. Results suggest that a similar endogenous factor endowed with digitalis-like characteristics is present in all mammalian species. 相似文献

Certain antibodies (Abs) elicited using the cardiac glycoside digoxin (digoxigenin tridigitoxoside) bind preferentially to analogs that differ from digoxin by substitutions on the cardenolide rings, the lactone, or by the presence or absence of attached sugars. Antibody 26-10 binds equally well to digoxin and digitoxin, which differ only by the presence in the former and the absence in the latter of an hydroxyl group at C12. Other antidigoxin Abs, however, can distinguish between these ligands by three orders of magnitude in binding. Inspection of the structure of Fab 26-10 complexed with digoxin shows a gap in complementarity in the region between the digoxin O12 and LCDR3. We proposed that insertions in LCDR3 might result in Abs that bind digitoxin preferentially. We produced libraries of mutants displayed on bacteriophage which were randomized at LCDR3 and contained LCDR3 insertions. Mutants were selected by panning against digoxin and analogs. The mutants bound digitoxin preferentially up to 47-fold greater than digoxin. The mutants that bound well to digitoxin demonstrated a consensus sequence including the substitution of Trp at position L:94. Using site-directed mutagenesis, the binding to digitoxin was shown to be maximized by the combination of an insertion and L:Trp94 mutation, moving the L 94 side chain closer to digoxin. We also selected mutants that bound preferentially to gitoxin, which, like digitoxin, lacks the 12-hydroxyl, increasing relative binding to gitoxin up to 600-fold compared to the unmutated Ab 26-10. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to characterize endogenous digitalis-like activity in water extract from mammalian tissues. Prepurified samples obtained from guinea-pig heart were analysed by reverse-phase HPLC using an acetonitrile gradient. The eluent was assayed for its activity as inhibitor of human heart Na+, K+-ATPase and digoxin-like immunoreactivity. Both activities were recovered in the same fraction after two successive chromatographic steps. These results provide further evidence for the presence of an endogenous digitalis-like factor, cardiodigin, in mammalian heart. 相似文献

We have previously shown that antidigoxin antibodies may neutralize partially purified endogenous digitalis like factor(s) present in newborn (umbilical cord) plasma. We here report on the preparation of an immunoaffinity chromatographic system (high affinity digoxin-binding antibodies (Fab fragments) bound covalently to Sepharose) for the purification of endogenous digitalis like factor(s). Neonate plasma extract loses all its biological digitalis-like activity (erythrocyte 86Rb uptake inhibition) after absorption on Sepharose coupled to Fab fragments but not after absorption on uncoupled Sepharose. Endogenous digitalis like factor(s) absorbed to Sepharose coupled to Fab fragments can be eluted by methanol. Subsequent HPLC separation indicate that at least two molecular species with digitalis-like properties are retained by antibodies bound to Sepharose and can be recovered with methanol. 相似文献

On the assumption that digoxin-like immunoreactivity may represent digitalis-like sodium pump inhibitors in the mammalian body, many investigators have used radioimmunoassay for digoxin to monitor such factors during the past decade. The presence of digoxin-like immunoreactivity has been confirmed by numerous studies using biochemical, immunological or morphological methods. Very recently, ouabain or a very similar substance, which did not cross-react with antidigoxin antibodies, was identified from the human plasma as the long-sought sodium pump inhibitor. However, it is yet to be determined whether sodium pump inhibitory activity in the circulation results from one substance or several. Some researchers still insist on the possible physiological roles of digoxin-like immunoreactivity which may or may not be related to the regulation of sodium pump. These issues are critically reviewed in this article. 相似文献

A circulating factor with digoxin immunoreactivity has been demonstrated. Elevated levels of this substance appear to be present after volume expansion and salt loading, and in some forms of hypertension. The potentially causative role for this factor in hypertension can be demonstrated by the normalization of blood pressure after antidigoxin antibody infusions in low-renin and sodium-dependent hypertension. The possibility that renal excretory defects may be the initiating event to elevate endogenous digoxin is suggested by studies with normotensive humans and monkeys with renal disease. In the latter case cardiovascular deficits were noted that were analogous to those detected in renal hypertensive monkeys with elevated endogenous digoxin. Considered together, these results suggest the existence of a natriuretic and hypertensive substance that plays a role in body fluid homeostasis and blood pressure regulation. 相似文献

Endogenous factors cross-reacting with antidigoxin antibodies have been found in several tissues and body fluids of animals and humans, using commercially available digoxin radioimmunoassay or enzyme immunoassay methods. The chemical characteristics of these endogenous factors are, at present, unknown, although it has been suggested that they could be substances with low molecular weight. Experimental studies and theoretical considerations indicate that endogenous digitalis-like factors (DDLFs), in addition to the ability to react with antibodies, might also bind to the specific cellular receptor of the cardiac glycosides and thus inhibit the membrane Na+/K(+)-ATPase (sodium pump). Therefore, EDLF can be an endogenous modulator of the membrane sodium-potassium pump and several authors have suggested that EDLF could play a role in the regulation of fluids and electrolytes, muscular tone of myocardial and also in the pathogenesis of arterial hypertension. In this review, the authors discuss the hypothesis that, in metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, obesity and acromegaly, the sodium retention and volume expansion, possibly due to exaggerated sodium intake, and/or exogenously induced peripheral hyperinsulinemia and high levels of growth hormone, could trigger a sustained release of EDLF, which in turn increases the blood pressure. 相似文献

Intravenous injection of New Zealand White rabbits with type III pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine conjugated with the cardiac glycoside digoxin resulted in the production of both antidigoxin and anti-type III pneumococcal polysacharide antibodies. Among antisera of 12 rabbits examined during their peak antibody production periods, 1 to 20 mg (mean, 5.4 mg) of antidigoxin antibody could be recovered from 1 ml of serum. Antisera from five of these 12 rabbits contained antidigoxin antibodies of restricted heterogeneity as demonstrated by urea-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis of fully reduced and alkylated antibodies. From the antisera of four of these five rabbits, electrophoretically homogeneous antibodies (1 to 5 mg/ml antiserum) could be isolated by affinity chromatography on ouabain-amine-Sepharose columns. The structural homogeneity of two of these antidigoxin antibodies was confirmed by amino acid sequence analysis of purified light chains through the first hypervariable region. These data suggest that the conjugation of small molecules to bacterial polysaccharide vaccines may provide a general method for synthesis of immunogens that can regularly elicit antihapten antibodies of restricted heterogeneity. 相似文献

Immunoglobulin chain recombination among antidigoxin antibodies by hybridoma-hybridoma fusion 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Conditions necessary for in vitro chain recombination of high affinity (10(9) to 10(12) M-1) antidigoxin monoclonal antibodies resulted in decreased affinity for both intact "native" and chain recombinant molecules. Chain recombination by somatic cell fusion was used instead to study the effects on antigen specificity and idiotypy of recombinants in which an homologous light (L) chain substituted for the parental L chain. The antidigoxin antibody 26-10 utilizes a VL sequence highly homologous to that of antibody 40-20, an antidigoxin antibody which uses a different VH gene than does 26-10 and lacks significant reactivity with an anti-26-10 idiotypic serum. The drug-marked antidigoxin cell line 26-10 (gamma 2a, kappa) and a drug-marked light chain producing variant of antidigoxin hybridoma 45-20 (lambda 1) which lacks both digoxin binding and idiotypy were fused. The fusion progeny (gamma 2a, kappa, lambda 1) which binds digoxin and is idiotype-positive, was selected for kappa loss (resulting in loss of digoxin and idiotype binding) and then fused with a heavy (H) chain loss variant of antidigoxin hybridoma 40-20 (kappa, digoxin nonbinding, idiotype negative). The resultant cell line CR-57 (gamma 2a, kappa, lambda) secretes antibodies which assemble the 26-10 H chain with both the 40-20 kappa-chain and the 45-20 lambda 1-chain. The affinity purified recombinant species consisting of 26-10 H chain and 40-20 kappa-chain expresses complete 26-10 idiotypic determinants. However, this recombinant antibody binds digoxin with decreased affinity and altered specificity relative to native 26-10. The binding specificity pattern nonetheless is most similar to the H chain donor. Amino acid and nucleotide sequence analyses of the respective light chains demonstrate six variable region differences between them, two of which are in complementarity-determining regions and the remainder in the framework. Hybridoma-hybridoma fusion provides an alternative to in vitro chain recombination for studying the contribution of chain combinational diversity to antibody diversity, antigen binding, and idiotypy. 相似文献

The amino acid sequences of the heavy- and light-chain variable regions of the high-affinity human sequence antidigoxin monoclonal antibody 1B3 (mAb 1B3) were determined, and a structural model for the mAb's variable region was developed by homology modeling techniques. The structural model provided the basis for computationally docking digoxin and eight related cardiac glycosides into the putative binding site of mAb 1B3. Analysis of the consensus binding mode obtained for digoxin showed that the cardenolide moiety of digoxin is deeply embedded in a predominantly hydrophobic, narrow cavity, whereas the terminal, gamma-carbohydrate group is solvent-exposed. The docking results indicated that the primary driving forces for digoxin binding by mAb 1B3 are hydrophobic interactions with the digoxin steroid ring system and hydrogen bonds with the digitoxose groups. The binding model accounts for the experimentally observed variations in mAb 1B3 binding affinity for various structural analogs of digoxin used previously to develop a 3D structure-activity relationship model of drug binding (Farr CD, Tabet MR, Ball WJ Jr, Fishwild DM, Wang X, Nair AC, Welsh WJ. Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship analysis of ligand binding to human sequence antidigoxin monoclonal antibodies using comparative molecular field analysis. J Med Chem 2002;45:3257-3270). In particular, the hydrogen bond pattern is consistent with the unique sensitivity of mAb 1B3's binding affinity to the number of sugar residues present in a cardiac glycoside. The hydrophobic environment about the steroid moiety of digoxin is compatible with the mAb's reduced affinity for ligands that possess hydrophilic hydroxyl and acetyl group modifications in this region. The model also indicated that most of the amino acid residues in contact with the ligand reside in or about the three complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of the heavy chain and the third CDR of the light chain. A comparison of the 1B3 binding model with the crystal structures of two murine antidigoxin mAbs revealed similar binding patterns used by the three mAbs, such as a high frequency of occurrence of aromatic, hydrophobic residues in the CDRs and a dominant role of the heavy chain CDR3 in antigen binding. 相似文献

The MDR1 gene product, P-glycoprotein, mediates the transport of the cardiac glycoside, digoxin. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Digoxin, a widely used cardiac glycoside with a low therapeutic index, is known to interact with a large and diverse group of co-administered drugs, frequently leading to toxic accumulation of the glycoside. Establishing the mechanism(s) of these interactions, therefore, has potential clinical significance. The present studies implicate P-glycoprotein, the MDR1 gene product overexpressed in multidrug resistant cells, as the apical membrane protein responsible for the renal secretion of digoxin and provide an explanation for the occurrence of digoxin toxicity in the presence of certain co-administered medications. Since digoxin is considered a prototype for endogenous digitalis-like glycosides, the results also allow for speculation that endogenous digitalis-like glycosides may be the natural substrates for P-gp. 相似文献

The secretion of digoxin and digitoxin into in situ perfused jejunal and colonic segments of normal or quinidine treated guinea pigs was studied. Quinidine was administered intravenously by constant rate infusion resulting in a quinidine plasma concentration of about 6 micrograms/ml. After 2 h digoxin or digitoxin was injected i.v. (10 micrograms/kg). The quinidine treatment enhanced the plasma concentration of [3H]digoxin to about 140% as compared to controls, whereas the [3H]digitoxin concentration was not influenced by the quinidine infusion. Both, digoxin and digitoxin were secreted against a concentration gradient into the intestinal lumen. During the experimental period of 180 min controls secreted 0.24% of the administered digoxin dose per cm of jejunal and 0.13% per cm of colonic segment. Quinidine treatment resulted in a decrease of the jejunal digoxin secretion to about 80% of the control values. In both, jejunum and colon the concentration ratio between lumen and plasma (L/P) was diminished by quinidine to 50% as compared with the controls. The amount of [3H]digitoxin secreted into the intestinal segments was decreased by quinidine from 0.19% of the dose/cm to 0.13% in the jejunal and from 0.17% to 0.12% in the colonic segments, respectively. The decrease of the L/P ratio for [3H]digitoxin was more pronounced in the colon (58%) than in the jejunum (77% of the control values). As compared with controls the content of [3H]digoxin in the jejunal as well as colonic tissue was decreased by quinidine to 60% or 73%, respectively. On the other hand quinidine increased the tissue content of [3H]digitoxin in jejunum (+56%) and colon (+88%). In conclusion quinidine inhibits the intestinal secretion of both, digoxin and digitoxin, possibly by different mechanisms. 相似文献

Antidigoxin antibodies neutralize the effect of newborn endogenous digitalis-like factor on erythrocyte 86Rb uptake. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Increasing evidence indicates the existence of endogenous digitalis like factor(s) (EDLF). We recently reported on the partial purification of an EDLF from newborn (cord) blood which possesses both digoxin-like immunoreactivity and the ability to inhibit the cell membrane sodium pump measured as the inhibitory activity on erythrocyte 86Rb uptake. We here report that high affinity digoxin-binding antibodies (Fab fragments; Digibind, Burroughs Wellcome Co.) are capable of neutralizing the inhibitory activity on erythrocyte Rb uptake not only of digoxin but also of ouabain and of partially purified newborn EDLF. These results provide, to our knowledge for the first time, direct evidence that antidigitalis antibodies may cross-react with one or more circulating substances which share antigenic determinants with digoxin and ouabain and possess endogenous digitalis-like properties, strongly suggesting that these antibodies may be useful tools both for the assay of EDLF and for the study of its biological effects. 相似文献

In order to characterize the structure of endogenous digitalis-like immunoreactive factor (DLIF), we utilized peritoneal dialysis fluid from patients with chronic renal failure as a source of endogenous digitalis-like immunoreactive factor (DLIF), and subjected it to one-step ion exchange chromatography, followed by one step reverse HPLC. Crude dialysis fluid contained 0.09 ng/ml of DLIF, and using Amberlite XAD-2 chromatography we extracted 110 ng of DLIF from 800 ml of dialysis fluid. By applying this partially purified DLIF to our HPLC system, we discerned three peaks of DLIF activity, with retention times of 34, 58 and 63 minutes. The first peak overlapped the elution profile of ouabain, and the third peak co-eluted precisely with digoxin. The second DLIF peak was not in proximity to any of the digitalis-like markers employed. Thus, our results indicate that DLIF isolated from peritoneal dialysis fluid exists in three distinct forms, one of which resembles ouabain, and one which is identical to digoxin. 相似文献

Since the initial report of the development of methodology to generate high-affinity digitalis-specific (digoxin) antibodies, these antibodies have proven extremely useful tools to monitor digoxin levels in digitalized patients and, as Fab fragments, to reverse toxic digoxin effects in life-threatening digoxin overdoses. These antibodies (both digoxin-specific and ouabain-specific) have been used extensively by investigators for the identification and characterization of putative endogenous digitalis-like factors. In this study, we used two well-characterized mouse anti-digoxin monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), designated 26-10 and 45-20, as binding templates with which to select short bacteriophage-displayed (pIII protein inserted) peptides that are capable of binding to these mAbs and mimicking the conformational structure of digoxin. Selective enrichment from two phage-displayed random peptide libraries enabled us to isolate and identify distinct 15 and 26 amino acid residue peptide inserts that bind with high avidity and idiotypic specificity to the selecting mAbs. Among these displayed inserts a subset was identified whose mAb binding is inhibited by digoxin and whose corresponding synthetic peptides inhibit phage binding. They, therefore, appear to bind at the mAbs digoxin-binding sites. These data provide the first clear evidence that short polypeptides can serve as surrogates for the low molecular mass hapten digoxin. 相似文献

Thin layer chromatographic, and laser-confocal microscopic analyses with a monoclonal antibody to digoxin also displaying high affinity to digoxigenin, were used to determine the presence and localization of cardioactive glycosides. Tetrahymena pyriformis was found to possess digitoxigenin-like material, but digoxin, digitoxin, digoxigenin, gitoxin and lanatoside C were not detected. Digitoxin treatment elicited the appearance of a digoxin-like material in the progeny generations. Digoxin was taken up by untreated Tetrahymena, especially strongly 24 h after digitoxin treatment. While the cardenolide was localized in vesicles of the cell body in untreated Tetrahymena, the engulfed digoxin appeared in the epiplasmic layer and also in the cilia after digitoxin pretreatment. Digoxin pretreatment did not increase digoxin uptake. These data indicate that Tetrahymena has: (1) the capacity to discriminate between closely related molecules; (2) the ability to induce digoxin-like material production; and/or (3) enzymes that can effect a digitoxin-digoxin transformation. 相似文献

Determination of bufalin-like immunoreactivity in serum of humans and rats by time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay for using a monoclonal antibody 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The existence of a mammalian natriuretic substance or endogenous digitalis-like factor, which inhibits Na+,K+-ATPase and thereby regulates body fluid volume, has been speculated for a long time but has yet to be defined. We established in the present study a simple and highly sensitive procedure to measure bufalin, a constituent of toad venom preparation and a specific inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase by time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TR-FIA) and using a monoclonal antibody. The antibody was specific to bufalin and resembled bufadienolides but showed no cross-reactivity with digitoxin and ouabain. A bufalin-like immunoreactivity was detectable in serum of humans and rats by the proposed TR-FIA. The levels of bufalin-like immunoreactivity in serum of healthy volunteers were significantly correlated with their systolic blood pressure. Moreover, bufalin-like immunoreactivity in serum of Dahl-S rats increased in parallel with a period of high-salt diet. These results suggest that increased bufalin-like immunoreactivity may be associated with certain types of hypertension. 相似文献

A V kappa-J kappa junctional change in an antidigoxin recombinant antibody destroys digoxin-binding activity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
N W Hudson R E Bruccoleri L K Steinrauf J A Hamilton M Mudgett-Hunter M N Margolies 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1990,145(8):2718-2724
A set of high affinity antidigoxin antibodies were previously identified with high homologous V kappa 1A L chain sequences but were associated with two entirely different VH regions and two dramatically different specificities for digoxin analogs. Antibodies 40-20, 40-60, 40-90, and 40-100 displayed similar binding specificities but differed from that of antibody 26-10. In a previous study using somatic cell fusion for Ig chain recombination we demonstrated that a recombinant antibody consisting of the H chain of antibody 26-10 and the L chain of antibody 40-20 retained digoxin binding and the 26-10 Id, but displayed a binding specificity pattern dominated by the 26-10 H chain donor. In the present study we produced three additional chain recombinant antibodies that contain the 26-10 H chain recombined with each of the L chains of antibodies 40-60, 40-90, and 40-100. All four recombinants expressed the 26-10 Id indistinguishably from the 26-10 antibody. Two of the recombinants (using the 40-60 and 40-90 L chains) bind digoxin; however, the recombinant using the 40-100 L chain failed to bind digoxin. Complete sequence analyses of the 40-20, 40-60, 40-90, and 40-100 VH and VL regions were performed. Antibodies 40-90 and 40-100 have identical VH region sequences but differed only in their L chains at position 96 (proline/leucine). This single difference at the VK-JK junction abolished digoxin binding in the context of one H chain (26-10), but does not cause a significant change in binding in association with the "normal" parental chains 40-90 and 40-100. Thus, structurally closely related VL regions can recombine with different VH regions to form digoxin binding sites of different specificity; in one binding site the identity of a L chain junctional residue is critical whereas in the second binding site that residue is unimportant. Molecular modeling studies revealed major differences between calculated binding site structures for 26-10 when leucine is substituted for proline at position 96 in the 26-10 VL region. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that digoxin decreases testosterone secretion in testicular interstitial cells. However, the effect of digoxin on progesterone secretion in luteal cells is unclear. Progesterone is known as an endogenous digoxin-like hormone (EDLH). This study investigates how digitalis affected progesterone production and whether progesterone antagonized the effects of digitalis. Digoxin or digitoxin, but not ouabain, decreased the basal and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)-stimulated progesterone secretion as well as the activity of cytochrome P450 side chain cleavage enzyme (P450scc) in luteal cells. 8-Br-cAMP and forskolin did not affect the reduction. Neither the amount of P450scc, the amount of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein, nor the activity of 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3beta-HSD) was affected by digoxin or digitoxin. Moreover, in testicular interstitial and luteal cells, progesterone partially attenuated the reduction of pregnenolone by digoxin or digitoxin and the progesterone antagonist, RU486, blocked this attenuation. These new findings indicated that (1) digoxin or digitoxin inhibited pregnenolone production by decreasing the activity of P450scc enzyme, but not Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, resulting in a decrease on progesterone secretion in rat luteal cells, and (2) the inhibitory effect on pregnenolone production by digoxin or digitoxin was reversed partially by progesterone. In conclusion, digoxin or digitoxin decreased progesterone production via the inhibition of pregnenolone by decreasing P450scc activity. Progesterone, an EDLH, could antagonize the effects of digoxin or digitoxin in luteal cells. 相似文献

Enterolactone, a lignan that has been identified in biological samples from man and several mammals, shares with ascorbic acid and cardiac glycosides a gamma-butyrolactone. It displaces 3H-ouabain from its binding sites on cardiac digitalis receptor and inhibits, dose dependently, the Na+, K+-ATPase activity of human and guinea-pig heart. The time dependence of this inhibition resembles that of dihydroouabain, a cardiac glycoside in which the lactone ring does not contain conjugated double bonds. The active concentrations of enterolactone as inhibitor of Na+,K+-ATPase are in the 10(-4) M range and, at those concentrations, the cross-reactivity with antidigoxin antibodies is low. Lignans may contribute to the putative digitalis-like activity found in tissues, blood and urine of several mammals including man. 相似文献
